Notes: {'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'οἰκοδομή[a] may be interpreted as a derivative of οἰκοδομέω[a] to construct ({D:45.1}), or the latter may be interpreted as a causative derivative of οἰκοδομή[a], with the meaning to cause a building to exist. In view of the highly generic nature of οἰκοδομή[a], it is perhaps better to interpret it as a derivative of the corresponding event expression ({D:45.1}) since this seems to be the predominant pattern of derivative correspondences. But because of the obvious material form of constructions as buildings, οἰκοδομή[a] is introduced into Domain 7 as a generic for all the other meanings.'}

         Comments: In {S:04600300900016} the phrase θεοῦ οἰκοδομή has been interpreted by many as ‘a dwelling place for God’ (see {D:7.1}), but it is more likely that the Christian is regarded as the result of God’s activity, that is to say, the believer is ‘God’s construction’ or ‘that which God has made.’ οἰκοδομή in {S:04700500100024} (οἰκοδομὴν ἐκ θεοῦ ἔχομεν ‘we have a construction from God’) may be regarded as having essentially the same meaning as in {S:04600300900016}, though the reference here is to the glorified body.
